Arizona Laws 35-456. Amount, denomination and form of bonds
A. The governing body or board shall cause the bonds to be prepared in the amount and denominations authorized, or whole multiples of such denominations, bearing the date of issuance and numbered in a convenient manner. Bonds voted at one or more elections, for one or more different purposes and subject to one or more debt limits may be combined into a single issue or series maturing at such times and containing such options for redemption prior to maturity, with or without premium, as the governing body or board may determine prior to the issuance of the bonds. On or before retirement of bonds of such a combined issue, the governing body or board shall determine the voted purpose or purposes for which the bonds being retired were issued. This determination is conclusive in calculating the amount of bonds remaining outstanding for each such voted purpose and for calculating outstanding bonded indebtedness with respect to article IX, sections 8 and 8.1, Constitution of Arizona.
